1419 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11213

1419 Park Place in Crown Heights is a 2-family house built in 1910, currently owned by Paul Naranjo. The property has recently experienced a concerning cluster of maintenance issues, particularly evident in December 2023 when multiple complaints were filed regarding electrical wiring, lighting problems, cabinet issues, plumbing concerns including both heavy flow and slow leaks, and water-related problems affecting basins/sinks.

Some of these complaints resulted in housing violations being issued, specifically concerning cabinet problems and pest-related unsanitary conditions. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) did conduct inspections in December 2023 and while some issues were resolved (with inspection dates generally falling between December 19-24, 2023 and closure dates between December 19-25, 2023), others remain unresolved or were documented with violations requiring further attention. As of June 2025, there is an active complaint regarding the building being "Vacant, Open and Unguarded" filed with the Department of Buildings, indicating potential security and maintenance concerns.

This recent complaint adds to the property's documented history of unresolved and recurrent maintenance issues from late 2023, suggesting ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The patterns of complaints suggest particular attention has been needed for electrical systems, water infrastructure, and general maintenance, though many of the specific violations and conditions can be reviewed in detail through the NYC HPD website. It's noteworthy that while many of the December 2023 complaints were responded to and closed, some were classified as "Emergency" or "Immediate Emergency" situations, indicating potentially serious conditions at that time.
